<br />
With the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tokyo-motor-show/">Tokyo Motor Show</a> now behind it, the Japanese automotive industry is gearing up for the next big event. That'd be the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tokyo-auto-salon/">Tokyo Auto Salon</a>, Japan's equivalent to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/sema/">SEMA</a> or <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/essen/">Essen</a>, set to take place at the Makuhari Messe in Chiba. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/subaru/">Subaru</a> has already <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/22/subaru-levorg-custom-concepts/">announced</a> what it has in store for the tuner expo, and now <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> has followed suit.<br />
<br />
Most interesting of all the tuner concepts Honda has lined up are a pair of modified <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/honda+vezel/">Vezel</a> crossovers. The one pictured above is kitted out with parts from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/modulo/">Modulo</a> catalog, while a second one is being prepared by <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/mugen/">Mugen</a> (similar to the one recently <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/16/honda-vezel-mugen-leaked/">leaked</a>). Both look pretty sharp and hint at the possibilities in store for the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/fit/">Fit</a>-based crossover that'll come to these shores <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/20/honda-vezel-turbo-hybrid-report/">with turbo power</a>.<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/honda-at-2014-tokyo-auto-salon/#photo-2122499"><img alt="Honda N-One Modulo Concept" class="right border" data-credit="Honda" src="http://hss-prod.hss.aol.com/hss/storage/adam/f0fb1c6d224434740cbbf9154990479/n-one-modulo.jpg" data-mep="69221" /></a><br />
Honda is also displaying Modulo and Mugen versions of a number of other vehicles, including its N family of Kei cars, the new JDM Odyssey and the Fit. There's an N-WGN kitted out like a cookie delivery truck, an <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2012/07/08/hondas-versatile-little-n-box-makes-the-scene/">N-Box+</a> modified to look like an <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/element/">Element</a>, a series of Ninja Turtles-inspired <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/honda+grom/">Grom</a> motorbikes and an array of racing machinery. Check 'em all out in the gallery above and the press release <a href="/2013/12/26/honda-mugen-modulo-vezel-tokyo-auto-salon/#continued">below</a>.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/26/honda-mugen-modulo-vezel-tokyo-auto-salon/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Honda customizing Vezel to headline Tokyo Auto Salon lineup</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/26/honda-mugen-modulo-vezel-tokyo-auto-salon/">Honda customizing Vezel to headline Tokyo Auto Salon lineup</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Thu, 26 Dec 2013 10:32:00 EST.
